[quote=Anonymous]DH and I have lived in DC for 17 years. Out of school I worked in finance, then for a prestigious think tank, and now I'm a high level tech industry consultant with the luxury of working as few or many hours as I please. DH worked for big law, became an equity partner, and then founded his own boutique firm and has clients nationwide, but mostly on Wall Street. We both attended schools that would be considered 2nd or even 3rd tier on this forum. DCUM is a very strange and snotty place but the real world, in my opinion, is not. If you are at a Brookings or other TT panel or conference nobody asks where you went to school - that's not what you talk about. If you are likable, work hard,achieve goals and exude confidence all doors will be open to you in life. [/quote]
